Ghosts of Halloween Past (& Present)

I love Halloween! I always have loved Halloween from as early as I can remember. & every year since I started trick-or-treating, I have dressed up in costume for the spooky holiday. For the past several years, since 2007 to be exact, I have kept a fun tradition of dressing up as a famous professional wrestler. Here is a look at all of my wrestler costumes from then until now...
Picture
Of course I had to start the whole tradition off w/my all-time favorite wrestler, Jimmy Valiant. Here's me in 2007 as the Boogie Woogie Man!
Picture
I dressed as Crazy Bugsy McGraw in 2008! This is probably my favorite of the costumes as it looked the most like the original.
Picture
For 2009, I decided to turn bad guy & dressed as the scary Jos LeDuc!
The most fun part about this costume was getting to smash up an old radio like the real LeDuc did to Boogie back in the day!
Picture
Here's me as Pampero Firpo in 2010 w/the real Jimmy Valiant! I first heard of Firpo in Boogie's book & the more research I did on him the more I liked him. I knew he would be a great Halloween costume!
Picture
I had seen Avalanche Buzz Tyler here & there in the past, but when I saw a recently posted youtube video showing Tyler & Valiant paying off another team for the chance to get their hands on Paul Jones & his Army, I knew this would be the perfect costume for this year. & yes, I made sure to have some play money tucked away in my jacket pocket just in case I needed to buy someone's spot in a match! Speaking of my jacket, for financial reasons I decided to just use the same 'ring jacket' that I used for Pampero the year before. For what it's worth, we can just pretend that Tyler beat Firpo in a match for the jacket!
Picture
& finally, I just had to include a picture of my son, Douglas, in his only pro wrestler Halloween costume to date (unless you count Spider-Man). Here his is in last year's awesome Hawk costume! The Road Warriors are his all-time favorite tag-team. This year he is going as Darth Vader!

I hope you enjoyed my little walk down my Halloween memory lane. Have a very fun, safe & spooky Halloween!
